It might surprise some of my friends but I am really looking forward to seeing this next generation Windows Phone 7 to hit the shelves, even though they will probably be US centric for the first while.
I am especially taken with the MetroUI as I think it is one of the coolest things that Microsoft has done in awhile and shows that company is still capable of surprising us. Luckily for us as well Mr. Supersite himself Paul Thurrott has just plastered his site with some new screenshots of what we might be able to expect the final product to look like on the OS level.
This week, a ROM image of a near-final (RC1 escrow) version of Windows Phone 7 leaked online, providing us with a near-final look at Microsoft’s next smart phone operating system. (It’s an unlocked version of the April CTP, for those who are curious.) If you’ve been following along on my Windows 7 Secrets blog, you know that I’ve been using these unlocked ROMs in tandem with Microsoft’s freely-available Windows Phone developer tools to examine the company’s progress using a software. But since this is a near-final build, I thought it would be worth a closer look.
So with a tip of the hat and big thanks to Paul here’s a few of the many screen shots he has pulled together (you can see them all over at his blog).
